Find the missing side of the triangle.​

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

x ^2 = 8^2+ 15^2

√x^2 =√64+225

x=17

17cm.

Step-by-step explaination:

The given triangle is a right angled triangle.

Using Pythagorean Theorem,

a² + b² = c²

Putting the given values in the equation;

(15)² + (8)² = c²

225 + 64 = c²

289 = c²

17² = c² (square root of 289 = 17)

17 = c

c = 17

Therefore, the missing side of the triangle is equal to 17 cm.

(sin 42)/31. = sinx)/37

sinx = 37 (sin42)/31

= 37× 0.66/31 = 0.787

x= 51.9

other angle opposite to y = 180-51.9-42

= 180- 93.9 =86.1

so

sin42)/31 = sin 86.1)/y

0.021 = 0.997 /y

y= 0.997/0.021 =47.47

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
